Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
Dark Horse continues its parade of new manga with the second, super fat volume of Trigun! Set in some kind of post-apocalypse western future, Trigun continues to knit a goofy yet mysterious story about a nice-guy gunslinger with a dangerous past and a huge bounty on his head. Everyone is after Vash the Stampede, but no one can put a bullet in him. Adding to the comedy is the pair of ladies working for an insurance company who must put a stop to Vash's destruction, though they certainly don't believe this amiable prankster is the vicious destroyer. It's a fun read, and super thick, packed full of silliness and action.

I've heard a lot about Trigun and started to read it. Though, the very first volume is okay, the second volume is much better! I mean, the very first volume has a slower pace than the second. Also, the art in the second volume improved. Even if you're not into anime, you might still enjoy this manga! It's almost better than the DVD version! I'd recommend this manga for more mature people, who can deal with gore and darker stories. :)

When I picked up the very first Trigun, the plot was a bit slow. I felt like I had to push myself to get through it...but now I've come to the second Trigun, and the story is so much faster! It is very climactic, and I was rushing through each page to see what would happen next. The illustrations are beautiful. Some of the characters seem (to me) to be drawn a bit similar to that of a shoujo manga artist, which is a nice change from being crudely drawn...The few comical moments are appropriate for the situation and made me laugh. Some of the more intense battle scenes confused me a bit. With a large amount of detail, it was very hard to see what was going on. In a few instances, I was only able to tell what was happening because I had watched the anime.
All in all, a very good manga. Please don't buy this for a youngster. It'll scare them.

Trigun 2 finally came out!This volume concludes the very first part of the manga series.Some key events are verrrrry different in the manga.The atmosphere itself is far more dark,and weird.Even the characters are quite different.Vash is detirmined to send Knives to hell.Knives has long hair,and is nude for a while near the end.(I know why,but still...)The manga is very gory and dark,I'm warning you.Immature children should not read.Nudity,language,violence(Of the heart-rip,bloody child birth,decapitated head in bag,eye gouging with a gun variety.Mm-hmm.)
This may seem a bit rushed compared to the original,but keep in mind,there's still Trigun Maximum to develop the characters as much as the anime does.
It's sometimes hard to understand what's going on,but you should study the art anyway.It's amazing.There's so much detail,from all the buckles on Vash's clothes,to the awesome angel arm.And just look at Vash when Monev call him Diablo.Coooooool...
OVERALL:
PROS:Awesome art,keeps original Japanese honorifics,Smooth transition from dark and violent with funny,Bonus Trigun manga at the end,untranslated sound effects
Cons:Sometimes very difficult to tell what's happening.
Definitely a ful 5 stars.
be warned,the manga is definitely not for kids.Trix is.Eheheheheheh
